Into An Idiot

20. Waiting

For a majority of the time I am left waiting for my four favorite people to come home, so I can spend a short while with them before we are split again like the sparks fly off a flaming log, beautiful, each in their own watch but the fire altogether the most radiant. I miss my brother and best friends, but I spend some time with old friends. This moment in time is not beautiful, however. I hate working and can never stay focused. I have a crummy job at Maccas, working part time to pay off the house and food and clothing. I could never support myself if it weren't for my boys.
Knowing they're coming home makes me squeal and jump up and down like a little girl. They're on the last night of their tour in the United States today, and they'll be here in about 30 hours. I'm excited to see them, but I've been a little concerned to realize that Michael hasn't been calling me every night. Luke has been updating me every couple hours, though, letting me know everything they're doing and how everyone is.

Seven days pass before I get to see Michael. I open the bedroom door to see my boyfriend curled on his bed, huddled in a mass of blankets. I lay next to him, and gently kiss him on the forehead. He doesn't move; typical of him. I decide to run some errands and check in on him later, so I leave the Clifford bungalow and run to the town shops to pick out a special picnic.
Michael's awake when I come back. I give him a hug, and he looks confused. I remember what Ashton told me about him before, but I don't care.
"Sophia?" He asks, reaching out towards me.
I nod and smile, greeting him and telling him how much I missed him and love him. Then I ask if he'd like to join me on a picnic. He grins genuinely, takes my hand, and together we walk outside to the backseat of Ashton's beat up car, smiling at each other.

THE REST OF THIS IS IN REJECT! I KNOW IT WAS SHORT BUT ITS JUST AN INTRODUCTION!
